The original was a flop,

I completely disagree. I was a kid when that came out and we all fucking LOVED it. It was unique, amazing to look at, a great score (which you probably know the melody), spawned several popular video games, and was forever printed into the minds of that generation. "Flops" don't do that.

It didn't make Star Wars money, but it didn't lose money.
